Creative handyman needed on beautiful Devon farmland


The experience

We are a group of 3 families who share a plot of land on the South Devon Coastline, just walking distance from its beautiful beaches. We are looking for help maintaining the land and introducing new projects that maximise the wildlife in the area. This might include creating wildflower meadow, vegetable beds, strimming bracken and brambles, planting trees, helping with management of the lake, and general carpentry jobs in and around our homes.
